Expired Pringles and 40 Minute UNO Game

Kamusta po friends and family!!,

Well i think that the first thing I should start off by say in is.... THE LEGEND CONTINUES YO BOI IS STILL DL😂😂 ya so we had all the other elders in our zone leave and then we aren't getting any coming in sooo they assigned zone leaders and I'm just staying DL haha sooo that's cool😂

Alright, so I'll start with the funny stuff first and then end on a spiritual note. So on Tuesday when the elders in our zone left for the pines they gave us all of their food which was pretty much candy and chips. well one of the rooms had a ton of small things of pringles and they gave them to my room and we were happy because we all LOVE pringles, anyways so as the weeks going on there's this kid my district, who is actually one of the zone leaders, and he loves to come into my room and go and eat all my food and I don't care because its like all candy and I can't eat it all on my own, anyways he ate all of the small things of pringles and then one day he was eating the LAST one of them and he stops right in my door way and looks at me right as he is about to take his first bite of the last thing of pringles and I look at him and say "rude" he then proceeds to eat the chip well it you read the title of the email this week you will see that the pringles had expired or gone REALLY REALLY bad, I know what you are thinking... that's impossible Pringles don't go bad, well he legit eats the chip and just makes this face as if he just smelt something really bad and i ask what happened and he said try these chips they taste so weird and bad, So me thinking there's no way they could go bad tries one and of my gosh I almost threw up it was sooo bad, I never want to try that again!! 😂😂 

So last night during class my companion and the other zone leader started laughing about something in class and then our teacher, who is literally so awesome, starts to laugh too for no reason (in the middle of a lesson) well he tries to hold it in but my companion and elder Jones are laughing their heads off and my teacher is just trying so hard not to laugh and I don't know why but for me when people are trying not to laugh it is the funniest thing to me ever, anyways all three of them are trying sooo hard not to laugh and then I'm sitting there just turning purple trying not to laugh and then i just bust up laughing and for those of you who know my laugh know its very loud and very contagious, well because I did that as a class we literally laughed for 20 min straight for NO REASON it was the funniest thing of my life I was crying soooo hard, then when we got back to our place we started to play uno and then as it got late we wanted to go to bed but we had this game that actually went on for 40 flipping minutes it was soooo funny at one point a kid had to draw 20 card it was soo funny!

Ok so now its time for my "spiritual part" so on Tuesday Devotional we were all able to hear from Elder Stevenson of the quorum of the 12, and WOW was he amazing!! One of the things that he said that really effected me was " you as missionaries are able to plant the seed BUT that seed will only grow and prosper through the love of Jesus Christ and our Heavenly father and the converting power of the Holy Ghost, without them that seed may grow but it will die and won't drop any seeds, with them that plant will continue to drop seeds for generations and generations" This really hit me hard because a lot of the times when you hear missionaries talk they say that they just want to plant seeds, which is fine but they need to make sure or I need to make sure that I'm teaching through the spirit and not through just me. he also said something that i really like which was " strive to be an exact obedient Missionary (or person) , and you will be a successful and HAPPY missionary ( or person) I love you all and hope you have an amazing week!!

Alam ko na ang diyos and ating ama sa langit, Alam ko na si Jesucristo ang anak ng diyos, nagpapasalamat ako para sa pagmamahal ng ating ama sa langit, sa pangalan ni Jesucristo, amen.

I love you all and hope you have an amazing week!!

Mahal kita,

Elder Wilson
